[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate that my wife kept her name. It's one thing I would change about her and our marriage if I could. It's embarrassing to me and makes me sad that we will never be able to send out Christmas cards from the (last name)[/quote] I kept my last name yet always send out Christmas cards from the “Smith” Family. I also tell my friends to go ahead and use my husbands name when sending things so I receive a lot of mail to the “Smith” family. I don’t care the my last name is not specifically mentioned on the card, wedding invite, etc. Socially we go by my husbands name and professionally I use my name. I also don’t have an issue being addressed as Mrs “Smith” by the kids teachers. If your wife has issues using your name socially then maybe it is time for a discussion to figure out why she is so adamant to not use your name. Her explanation may help you understand the issue but I am betting this is a control thing on your part if you are embarrassed by this. Honestly, this would be a huge red flag if my husband was embarrassed. [/quote]
